Malice on the Mississippi River Bret J Royer

The Mighty Mississippi has astounded for hundreds of years, its mysteries hidden by the currents running below the water. Along the muddy shores of the largest river in the United States, towns line the waters edge- filled with residents driven crazy by the isolated locations and the mystical powers of the river. A serial killer trying to find his preferred kill style. A young boy forced to battle a slinky out for blood. A group of friends caught in a school house that burnt to the ground long ago. A scorned wife relishing her revenge. This collection of short stories humorously explores the dark and macabre side of living on the coast of the Mighty Mississippi River.
